Having problems with your Digital Cameras ?

I have a Canon A1000 IS PowerShot that seems to be ''stuck''. If I turn it off then on, it goes back to the zoom of the last picture taken, I can only view the last picture taken and cannot take any more pictures. It's like a PC freeze up. What can I do? Thanks

Remove the card...go into the menu and find "reset"...follow the on-screen instructions.

Cannon Camera I can take pictures and can only view the last picture taken only. Also the function or menu button does not respond. Some time ago I was able to scroll forward and backward when looking at my pictures taken , the i could only scroll in one direction only. Now it does not scroll at all. I take beautiful pictures and can still download from my memory card. The selection mode button stop working so I can't take movie shots

After I take picture, the picture is captured & shown but when I try to view,(by pressing playback) it displays 'Cannot playback Image' with a big question mark. When I downloaded & tried to view those pictures, its not displayed. Whatever viewer I use, it says viewer cannot open this picture as format is not supported. The format is Jpeg. I was using the camera for the first time in my trip, the pics taken for half day are fine, but later half it started giving the above error.I had not made an

Check to make sure that you did not accidentally change image format from jpg to crw(camera raw). Your camera lcd will only display jpg files and you need special software to view raw files on the pc. ...

Cannot take a picture, olny displays last picture taken, will not scan pictures

When I turn the camera on, the screen displays the last picture taken. I can take a picture but there is nothing shown in the viewing screen before I take the picture, so I don't really know what it is I am taking a picture of. The menu screens come up when pressed but nothing else appears to help. I have a PowerShot A720 IS.Thanks for your help.

Hi i have a casio exilim and i am using a 2gb memory card in it, i went out last night and took lots of pictures after each pic was taken i viewed it to make sure it was ok or if i needed to take another one and at the end ot the night i viewed all of them. Today i went to upload the pics onto my laptop and they have gone, every single one of them. The strangest thing is, that pics that were already on there ( taken previously ) were still there, only the pics from last night had vanished. i hav

You problem set your camera to use internal memory only. Set the memory function to memory card only and all pictures will go to the memory card until it is full. You can probably still transfer your pic files from internal memory to your card. ...

Within the last few days, suddenly when I take a picture a picture there is a little red eye that is flashing on the left hand of the screen and the little green light at the top is flashing also and there is hesitation of about 15 seconds before a picture is taken and then the picture will have a redish tint to it when it processes. This just started and I have changed batteries out and powered the camera on and off several times and I have checked all of the settings, and still cannot figure

It sounds to me that the timer is on. That would certainly explain the blinking lights and the 15 second delay. There should be a button with what looks like a small clock on it to turn this feature on and off. You should also be able to find it i ...

Hi, I forgot to insert back my memory card to my Panasonic Lumix LX3 one time and instead used its internal memory to take pictures. How can I extract those pictures to my computer? i cannot find its folder. Also, when the memory card is inserted in the camera, there are black screens that appear. But if the memory card is not inserted, the pictures taken using the internal memory can be viewed. HELP!

The image on the internal memory can be accessed only by connecting the camera directly to your computer. Assuming that you are using a Windows-based PC. If you are using Windows XP or a later Operating System, you do not need to install any driver f ...

Finepix A800 The LCD Monitor has a frozen skewed kalidoscope type image on it. It is impossible for me to remove it or to get anything brought up such as the menu, or to view the couple of hundreds of pictures that I have taken on it. It is possible, still, to load the pictures from the camera to the computer, but that is all that I can do. I cannot manually delete any of the pictures from the camera, since nothing shows up on the monitor except for that frozen weird design. It will still take p

I cannot see anything when in camera, film, or view mode. When I snap a photo, it sounds like a picture was taken and the flash still goes off, but nothing is displayed on the screen. Only when I attempted to upload my photos onto my PC was I able to see that my camera was in fact still taking pictures!

Does it show pictures on the computer or is it black images, if they are black, your cameras lens cover could be stuck, it opens up when the lens is fully open, dirt-sand and dust or old grease causes the problem. otherwise your LCD on the camera cou ...

Hi\015\012\015\012i know its sounds odd but yes the charge on the batteries (Voltage/Amps) is falling short for the camera to start as it takes more power to run the camera than to just preview your pictures\015\012\015\012one ...

Help, I took about 80 pictures on my olympus sp-350 camera, an xd card was in it. Took my camera out the following night and half way through it seemed as if the camera switched to taking pics on the card/ internal memory (not sure which!) because I could only view the last ones taken and not those before. I have been onto photo rescue and that only recovered the ones that were on the card. I pray to God I haven't erased them they were taken on a special holiday in fRANCE! PLEASE help

Lcd blurred I have a canon power shot a80 and when i turn it on and try to take a picture, on the LCD display i see a mixture of colour which is not even letting me see the image of the picture i would like to take. If i look through the lens and take the image, i am still able to view the picture I had taken if i set the camera on the view pictures.
